Industrial air tool specialist Fuji Air Tools has extended its FA-20 series of compact 2” angle grinders and die grinders in order to offer global customers the features that will meet their local requirements. The FA-20 series now comprises seven distinct models and offers users the choice of a locking lever version, collet version and rear exhaust version.

Fuji has also taken this opportunity to make significant improvements to the power, performance and operator comfort offered by the FA-20 series, when compared to existing models. Weighing no more than 0.8kg, FA-20 series grinders have a maximum power output of between 265W and 294W. As a result, some models deliver an improved power-to-weight ratio of almost 50% over previous Fuji grinders. In addition, vibration has been reduced by more than one third, so tasks can be completed more efficiently with improved operator comfort.

FA-20 series grinders feature a distinctive low profile grinding head design. With a height of only 40.5mm, these grinders are particularly suited to difficult applications where space is limited, such as metal grinding for mould maintenance, weld bead removal, deburring and chamfering. Applications include foundries, shipbuilding, railway maintenance and oil & gas platforms as well as general industrial metalworking tasks.

RealWeld Trainer, the only in-situ welding training device designed to record and score welding technique while performing real arc-on welds, has been enhanced to allow for testing 18-in. (457 mm) weld joints.

The new Behringer HBE Dynamic Series bandsaws use a high torque, frequency controlled blade drive motor. The specialized gearing in the drive is engineered to produce the blade power and speed needed to achieve fast cutting and peak throughput rates. Because the drive is low horsepower and energy efficient, power consumption is reduced while energy savings and high production are realized. The new saw is designed to meet a broad range of applications in the steel trade, mechanical engineering, tool making and in high-end metalworking shops.
